Chapter 21: The Landlord's Past

She turned her head to look at me, as if to ask me, is the assistant choreographer really the hell?

I nodded.

In the words of the young man just now, this is not a ghost, then what is a hell.

She asked me again, is that ghost amazing? If it's not good, can I just get rid of that ghost?

I was stunned for a moment, and I couldn't help but turn my head to look at her.

She has never supported or opposed my participation in the affairs of the Xuanmen, including the dispelling of evil spirits.

Like before, in order to break the Four Elephants Bureau, she helped me force the crew to buy a ton of cinnabar, but she didn't tell me about it.

Most people would think that she was silently supporting me.

But as one of the parties, I knew that if she didn't tell me, it meant that she didn't support me.

The reason why she forced the crew to buy cinnabar was just because she cared about me and was afraid that I would have an accident.

She knows that I, as a person, encounter ghosts, as long as the ghosts don't crush me unilaterally, as long as there is a glimmer of hope, no matter what I say, I will always take a risk.

That ton of cinnabar was just what she used to save my life.

But today, she was unusual, and even took the initiative to let me get rid of that ghost.

Why is that?

However, since even she said that, then I must get rid of this ghost.

I opened my eyes and looked around, but I still didn't see a ghost.

This is already the third time.

Since you can't find ghosts, let's start with people.

Judging from Zhou Chengming's post, what should the landlord know.

Start with the landlord.

However, neither she nor I have met the landlord, only the crew has met the landlord.

She approached the director and identified me.

Although the director was skeptical, he took me to a café.

The director and the landlord made an appointment to meet at this café.

As soon as the director and I sat down, the landlord came.

From the first time Zhou Chengming met the landlord to now, it has only been ten years, and the actual age of the landlord should only be in his forties, but at first glance, he seems to be in his fifties, looks very old, and his head is bald, and the standard long hair of the painter described in Zhou Chengming's post is gone, or rather, it can't be retained.

Wait for the landlord to sit down,

I asked the landlord, "You know that house is haunted, do you?" ”

The landlord didn't mean to hide it at all, nodded at me, and then said to the director: "I told your crew a long time ago that the house is really haunted, but your crew doesn't believe it." ”

"Who's that ghost?" I then asked the landlord.

This time, the landlord stopped talking, and slowly raised the coffee cup from the table, as if to drink.

"Is he or she your parents, wife, or children?"

I leaned forward, stared into the landlord's eyes, and asked further.

From the analysis of Zhou Chengming's post, the landlord should have known that the house was haunted before Zhou Chengming moved in.

When ordinary people encounter their own haunted houses, the first thing they think of must be to find someone to get rid of evil spirits.

If you can't get rid of it, then you will change your way and sell the house to someone who doesn't know about it to recover the loss.

The landlord's house in front of me has now become a well-known murderous house in the neighborhood, and it is naturally difficult to change hands.

But in the past, although that house was a murderous house, no one knew about it, at least before Zhou Chengming's post, it was like this.

This begs another question.

According to Zhou Chengming's post, the landlord himself said that before Zhou Chengming moved in, the house had been empty for three or four years.

The house had been empty for three or four years, which showed that the house had already begun to be haunted three or four years before Zhou Chengming moved in, forcing the landlord to move out.

In the three or four years before Zhou Chengming moved in, no one knew that the house was a murderous house.

So why would the landlord leave the house empty rather than sell it?

In general, it must be the landlord who has feelings for that house.

So why are there feelings?

It is very likely that the landlord has feelings for the person who used to live in that house with him.

Being able to live under the same roof with the landlord is naturally the closest person to the landlord.

The closest people to a man are none other than his parents, wife, and children.

Sure enough, when I said "wife", the landlord's hand stiffened holding the coffee cup.

"She's your wife?" I asked.

The landlord still didn't speak.

"You don't want to see what happened to her, right?" I threatened.

This time the landlord finally spoke.

"What do you mean?"

He asked, staring into my eyes.

I smiled and didn't speak.

Looking around, I saw that there were few customers in the café, and because we were in the corner, no one was paying attention to us at all.

From the bag I carried, I took out a yellow paper figure ten centimeters long and spread it on the table.

I had already drawn a yang talisman on the paper figure.

I've got my mind in mind.

The paper man stood up and took a few steps towards the landlord like a living person.

The landlord and the director were stunned by my sudden hand, and their mouths opened wide and they couldn't speak.

For a master of Xuanmen like me, this is not too magical, it is just an advanced application of Yang Fu.

I mentioned the principle of the yang talisman, which simulates the flow of yang energy on a person, so that the ghost mistakenly thinks that it is a person, so as to harm it instead of harming people.

As the path of the person who draws the talisman becomes higher and higher, the flow of yang energy on the yang talisman simulates the human body will become more and more realistic.

When the person is good enough, the yang can do some things that a human can do – for example, standing on both feet and walking as I just demonstrated.

While the other people in the café hadn't noticed the abnormality in our place, I quickly took out another six-spirit fire talisman from my bag and handed it to the paper man.

The paper man took the fire charm, and then jumped into the ashtray with the fire charm.

At the moment when the paper man jumped into the ashtray with the fire talisman, the fire talisman spontaneously combusted without fire, burning the paper man to ashes.

When the last spark in the ashtray goes out,

I said to the landlord, who was already stunned, "If you still refuse to say it, I can only scatter your wife's ghost!" ”

This is actually a lie I threatened the landlord.

For ghosts, our Xuanmen righteous path is always to give priority to transcendence, and unless it is absolutely necessary, we will not scatter the soul of the ghost, after all, it will hurt the heavens and the peace.

However, the landlord didn't know about this.

He had been stunned by the hand I had just had.

Soon, he gave up his resistance.

"I said, I said...... That's my ex-wife. ”

In seventeen or eighteen, the landlord married his ex-wife and bought the murderous house as a new house.

Of course, at that time, the murderous house was not a murderous mansion.

When the landlord and his ex-wife first got married, he was not well-known, and no one wanted his paintings.

The main income of their family comes from the salary of his ex-wife.

Later, after two or three years, the landlord gradually became famous, and more and more people asked him to paint.

In order to earn more, the landlord put all his mind on painting, and he cared less and less about his ex-wife.

Once, the landlord returned from a steppe gathering and found his ex-wife lying naked with a man.

The landlord didn't expect that when he came back from the grassland, he would have a large green grassland on his head.

He was furious and filed for divorce from his ex-wife, who was still his wife at the time.

Although his ex-wife had slept with another man, when the landlord filed for divorce, she said that she would not agree to anything.

She said she still loved the landlord.

The landlord ignored her, still wanted to divorce her, and moved out of the murderous house.

His ex-wife was forced to do nothing.

Finally, in the middle of the night, she lived alone in the murderous mansion and turned on the light in her bedroom.

She got up, walked over to the water dispenser, and poured a glass of water.
